Pipeline Safety Mapping System | Public Utilities Commission

The Pipeline Safety Program Mapping System is a map composed of operator submitted gas pipeline data. The dataset is composed of Transmission, Gathering, and Distribution intrastate pipelines. Municipalities pipelines are not included in this dataset. Use the magnifying glass in the top right of the application to search for addresses and points of interest.

This application should not be used in lieu of 811. For damage and locate information please visit colorado811.org

Layers are only available at zoom scales of 1:24,000 to 1:700,000. Layers will only load if you are within this range of scales, refer to the scale key in the bottom left of the application. If the map is not working, please contact us at charles.shikany@state.co.us

Disclaimer: The pipeline maps and data available for access from the Colorado Public Utilities Commission (“PUC”) are provided in accordance with 4 CCR 723-11100(c), using information submitted to the PUC by pipeline operators. The maps and data provided by the PUC are provided "as is" without express or implied warranty of any kind. The PUC disclaims any and all responsibility for the accuracy, timeliness or completeness of the maps and data.

This data must not be used in lieu of Colorado 811 locates, and users remain subject to Colorado 811 locate requirements, including civil penalties set forth in and fines assessed pursuant to §§ 9-1.5-104.4 or 9-1.5-104.5, C.R.S.

Short Description	Full Description
Operator Name	The company name that physically operates the pipeline system
Operator Number	Unique tracking number assigned by PHMSA to the company that physically operates the pipeline system. If you do not know your firm’s OPID, check with your DOT/Regulatory Compliance department or the NPMS Web site.
Commodity Category	Abbreviation for the primary commodity carried by the pipeline system. Valid Liquid Commodities: CRD=crude oil, PRD=non-HVL product, AA=anhydrous ammonia, LPG=liquefied petroleum gas, NGL=natural gas liquids, OHV=other HVLs, CO2=carbon dioxide, ETH=fuel grade ethanol, and EPL=abandoned pipelines that previously transported a liquid Valid Gas Commodities: NG=natural gas, PG=propane gas, SG=synthetic gas, HG=hydrogen gas, OTG=other gas, and EPG=empty gas. Note that when propane is transported as a liquid, use the LPG commodity abbreviation. The PG abbreviation should only be used when the commodity is in gaseous form. Note that when the pipeline is permanently abandoned, the use of EPL or EPG should represent the commodity that was previously transported. For instance, a natural gas transmission line that was later filled with water during the permanent abandonment process would be coded EPG because a gas commodity was last transported. Please report if the pipeline is filled with water, nitrogen or another fill material in the Commodity Description. Note that EPG and EPL may only be used for abandoned pipelines. Idle and Retired pipelines should report the commodity last transported. If the pipeline is purged, please report if the pipeline is filled with water, nitrogen or another fill material in the Commodity Description.
Designation of pipeline as transmission distribution, or gathering	Transmission = T, Distribution =D Gathering =G
NPMS Data provided	For Transmission, provided attribute data reported to NPMS. If NPMS Data is provided, put Y for yes and if not put N for no. See Figure 3-1 in the NPMS Operator Standards Guidance for additional attribute data to be included with transmission pipe
Pipeline Status Code	Describes the status of the pipeline segment as of the reporting year (i.e., December 31 of the previous year). I=in service, D=idle, R=retired (all subcategories of an active pipeline as defined by PHMSA), or B=permanently abandoned.
